RACE INCIDENTS

[gorgias1976]

I think we should stop doing reverse grid, it adds a considerable amount of potentially dangerous situations.

We could start studying race incidents, I dont think our members wouldnt accept the responsibility of their actions.

The problem is that the weight of that falls on you Gorka, do you have the time to handle it?

I don't think there would be that many incidents per event, we could give it a try. I think I'd have the time analize them.

I like the reversed grid because it adds other thrills to the race but considering it causes more harm than good to the people starting at the front maybe it would be time to get rid of it.

Bruce comments about weight penalties. That idea has always come to my mind as a way to keep drivers closers during races.
My idea is to everyone start week one with no weight handicaps. Then weights would be applied according to championship positions from 1st (max weight) to 10th (min weight).
Let's say something like
1st-50kg 2nd-45kg 3rd-40kg 4th-35kg 5th-30kg 6th-25kg 7th-20kg 8th-15kg 9th-10kg 10th-5kg


Back to incidents. If people agree in creating an incidents subforum, I would create a template people would have to fill when creating one with the objetive of adding the maximun information posible. The "acused" side would have the chance to defend his action and finally a decision would be made. We as admins would have to first discuss about posible "penalties" depending on actions. An incident would have to be rather serious for someone to get a real penalty, mostly someone who repeatedly is causing avoidable situations.
